Chickadee

A bird succumbed by its family, 
With a dainty little song
They survive natures winters
They survive through it all
So I wonder about this chickadee 
Which visits me
And I wonder what a coincidence it may be
That I’ve never had birds
Or even heard them sing
For before, I had bird seeds,
Uneaten and clean
And now with abundance,
There’s always a mess
And a song, and a dance
While I drink my coffee
